As usual Walter is right on the mark

Walter was mislead on this::

“According to the FBI, the police kill about 400 people a year”

The FBI doesn’t gather such statistics on who gets killed by police so whoever told him this was not citing any official figure.

Estimates vary but for 2015 they ranged from 975 to 1186.

ANY discussion of racial enmity, bias, hatred of blacks by whites and presentation of ‘statistics’ first has to remove the statistics of “black on black” murder-death-kill. To convolute these instances in with other statistics of arrests, police shootings, shootings of police, murder of other races is irrelevant when black on black crime is not removed from the equation. My opinion, but there it is.

Both Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams are towering figures on our American intellectual landscape.

Dittos ... sadly, his voice is ignored or not heard at all in the ‘black community’.
